It has been a busy few weeks for our staff doing everything they do so well with External Cleaning Brisbane, from housewashing, to driveway cleaning, roof cleaning (& painting), Shopping Centre Cleaning and even a Court House on the southern fringe of the City.
The following photos will give you an idea of what we’ve been up to and commencing with a Building & Asset Services contract to clean the exterior of a southside Court & Watchouse complex.
Stone-Chipped Building Clean
Large knuckle boom on a sloping drive did the trick
Looking pretty grubby and in need of a washdown
Lots of trees to negotiate with the boom
Looking good after the September long weekend
Shopping Centre Building Clean
Less than a fortnight beforehand we were contracted with old mate Andy (Able Pressure Cleaning) to clean the complete exterior of the Inala Shopping Plaza. Whilst our focus was on the buildings, Andy looked after the paths throughout as well as internal glass and aircon ducting.
The attached photos show we were all over the building from the Atrium down.
Viewed from inside the Plaza the atrium wasn’t letting much light in
It hadn’t been cleaned for several years …being on a roof on top of a roof is no doubt the reason why
Four large entrances meant arriving early to finish the work
Driveway Clean
We also cleaned Driveways during September and thought you’d appreciate this contrast.
We do lots of Body Corporate work & driveways are right up there
Looking good but more importantly Safe for tenants & visitors
Roof Cleaning – Colorbond & Terracotta
Then there were the roofs …we painted some and cleaned others as part of External Cleaning Brisbane.
With a 45 degree pitch this was a bit of a challenge
Safety equipment such as temporary anchors, ropes & harness are par for the course
Worth the effort & looking great
Terracotta roof owners are invariably grateful for our work
The contrast between cleaned and untouched is very stark indeed
Tell the neighbours to ring us on 0418 733 068 …they won’t want to miss out on this
Roof Painting
Also in September we painted roofs, one of which was simply a colour change to accomodate a repaint of the house. In fact we had painted this Graceville mansion’s roof several years ago. The house painter was so impressed with our work that he convinced the owner that nobody else would do. We tend to think he wasn’t keen to do it himself due to the 60 degree pitch on one aspect at the front…then again we may be wrong.
Getting there with the first topcoa
Right on the Brisbane river beginning with the airless after cutting in
Ready for the house painter to do his stuff
Building Pressure Clean for Rendering
Recently we blasted a building in Coopers Plains in preparation for rendering. Access was via a scissor lift as well as scaffolding above a lower roof.
As you can see it’s not Brisbane’s most attractive building, so looking forward to seeing the completed effort.
What were the builders thinking building with this stuff
Looking better for a clean but more to come
Shopping Centre Walkways
This week we dropped in to this shopping centre in Ferny Hills to clean up the front walkway.
We did it twelve months previously, together with the roof and a complete building washdown, but the stamped concrete was starting to look a bit shabby. The photos below show satisfying results from using hot water which always improves things by 50% (compared to cold). The lance was used to get rid of chewing gum and worked a treat.
Hot blasting stamped concrete …plastic bags stops water ingress
No chemicals here …just boiling water
Hot water chewy removal
Burnt Out Units
The Nundah Firies had a busy Halloween in the wee hours
Burnt Unit cleaned up for repainting
A good contrast half way there
Using a scissor lift for access, heavy duty water-jetting equipment and the right chemicals (full face mask required) this External Cleaning – Brisbane made it so much easier for the other trades to commence their restoration work
Trust this gives you some appreciation of the variety of work we do with External Cleaning Brisbane.
